Comprende unos 2.500 Km² de superficie y se une al resto de Falcón por una estrecha faja de dunas y salinetas denominada Istmo de Los Médanos, de unos 30 Km de longitu por unos 5 Km de anchura y altitus media de alrededor de 6 m. Su relieve es de tierras planas, cuya altura generalmente no sobrepasa los 50 m. y en las cuales los afloramientos son escasos, con algunas colinas de elevación baja y orientación regional este-oeste, en sus partes meridional y central. La mayor altitud se observa en el Cerro Santa Ana (830 m. en su cúspide). Hacia la parte central se encuentra la Mesa de Cocodite (cuya altitud excede ligeramente los 200 m.) y en la mitad merdional el Escarpado del Cunacho (altitud media de 40 m.).

INTRODUCTION The distribution of amphibians and reptiles is incompletely docijmented, consequencely, national, regional or local list of species, genera or families are scarce but highly desirable. Recent effort of some Venezuelan biologists have begun to correct this lack of distributional data. La Marca (1997. Los Vertebrados Actuales y Fosiles de Venezuela. Museo de Cienc. y Tecnol . Merida.

List the Meetings of the National Steering Committee held: (give dates, places): No meeting was held during the second semester 2005. The meeting was called up by the Venezuelan Fisheries Office, INAPESCA, on 10th November in Caracas, but neither the project nor INAPESCA, had the funds to cover the travel expenses of the participants from out of Caracas, so it had to be cancelled. The meeting is expected to be called up again in the first quarter 2006. In spite of this, the project coordinators have been informing most members of the NSC about the advances in the project, the results obtained and plans for the short term. Summarize the main points from these meeting, and please provide separately a copy of the “minutes” including names/titles of the participants: 2. Describe the progress of each activity (as listed in the project document, section 4.5 General Workplan and Timetable) Note: no financing from FAO-GEF to cover operational costs was received during this period. All activities were supported from local funding, both from INIA and from the commercial sector. The project did cover the salaries of three contracted technicians.

  • Marine Biodiversity in Venezuela: Status and Perspectives
    Gayana 67(2): 275-301, 2003 ISSN 0717-652X MARINE BIODIVERSITY IN VENEZUELA: STATUS AND PERSPECTIVES BIODIVERSIDAD MARINA EN VENEZUELA: ESTADO ACTUAL Y PERSPECTIVAS Patricia Miloslavich1,2, Eduardo Klein1,2, Edgard Yerena1 & Alberto Martin1,2 1Departamento de Estudios Ambientales, Universidad Simón Bolívar, Caracas, Venezuela. 2Instituto de Tecnología y Ciencias Marinas (INTECMAR), Universidad Simón Bolívar, Caracas, Venezuela. ABSTRACT Venezuela is among the ten countries with the highest biodiversity in the world, both in the terrestrial and the marine environment. Due to its biogeographical position, Venezuelan marine flora and fauna are composed of species from very different marine bioregions such as the Caribbean and the Orinoco Delta. The ecosystems in the Caribbean have received considerable attention but now, due to the tremendous impact of human activities such as tourism, over-exploitation of marine resources, physical alteration, the oil industry, and pollution, these environments are under great risk and their biodiversity highly threatened. The most representative eco- systems of this region include sandy beaches, rocky shores, seagrass beds, coral reefs, soft bottom communi- ties, and mangrove forests. The Orinoco Delta is a complex group of freshwater, estuarine, and marine ecosys- tems; the habitats are very diverse but poorly known. This paper summarizes the known, which is all of the information available in Venezuela about research into biodiversity, the different ecosystems and the knowl- edge that has become available in different types of publications, biological collections, the importance and extents of the Protected Areas as biodiversity reserves, and the legal institutional framework aimed at their protection and sustainable use. As the unknown, research priorities are proposed: a complete survey of the area, the completion of a species list, and an assessment of the health status of the main ecosystems on a broad national scale.
